Hi I'm Amira, 25, a lawyer. I live here in the Philippines. Guess what? I'm nothing unique. I'm just like any other person in my occupation. Only that I don't accept criminal clients. I only accept victim clients, and well, also those 'criminal' clients but only those I know are innocent. One thing I have learned in my profession, is to see who's lying or not. But, love is blind. One more thing, my life, is full of things i've never wished for. "Stay back! Don't touch her you-" "I would shoot her if you don't shut up!" Shout the man holding the gun followed by bullets shot in the air. Screams. Gunshots. Dead pepole. Blood covering the floor. When will this stop? How did I got into this? I feel sorry for the families, the children, waiting for their dads or moms to come home without knowing that they're forever gone in the world. I know that feeling, worst is I can do nothing for them

I slaped my face to confirm that it's just a nightmare. Mom, Dad, i miss you. So, so much. I can't help but cry. Tears are rolling down my cheecks non-stop. I'm sweating so bad. It hurts. It still hurts even if so many years have already passed. I'm just 8 years old back then. I'm 20 now. Already 13 years have passed. But who can get over that kind of thing? You parents being killed in front of you? Frick! I can still remember their position. My mom was hugging my dad until her last breath. Then she looked at me. Eyes saying goodbye. I cried so hard. The door opened then it swallowed Elocin. Maybe she heard my cries. "Hey, did you have a nightmare again?" she said as she sit beside me, rubbing my back. I see concern in her face. She's trying to stop me from crying. But the comfort is still not enough. But it did make me feel better a little. I cried on her shoulders. She hugged me tight, letting me. I cried so hard, i also hugged her tighter,

Then a i heard a phone ring. It's his phone. "Excuse me, i have to take this call, I’ll be back in a minute,"then he left his office. Right after he left, I let my eyes wander around his office. My neck almost cracked while I try to look at the back. This office is big! This is twice or more than twice the size of my house! His table is placed facing back the view of all the building and roads of Manila. If he turned back on his swivel chair, he’s gonna see the beautiful view of the lights of Manila at the night time because it’s glass!He also have a balcony where he can enjoy the cool breeze. He must be so rich! On the walls, he have so many expensive paintings. They’re so pretty. He also have a side where there are bookshelves full of so many books. This is heaven for a bookworm like me gosh! He’s living a luxury life! If I we’re him, I would donate some to charities or help people in need. But with that personality, I bet his not gonna do that.

He smiled evilly at me. Then he stood up. Looks like he’s enjoying the view that I’m panicking. I’M SO NERVOUS! GET ME OUT OF HERE AHHHHHH! “As I was saying,” he looked away trying to hide a smile, obviously, “we don’t have to do the wedding ceremony. We don’t have to perform the veil. We just have to sign the documents, the certificate of marriage, and we have to change your surname to mine. You’ll be Mrs. Villamorannas in an instant. Just like that. Also, send me your bank account so that I can transfer money to you. We also have to shop for your clothes. You’ll also move in with me. You’ll be with me in all events, you’re gonna introduce yourself as my woman, as my wife. We need to act as if we are inlove or what soever that couples do.” My jaw dropped at his straight statement. He didn’t even stutter! I just stayed like that for a few seconds before I closed my mouth. I still need some time to process and let these things sink in my mind! “Does that mean

Amira's POV I reached out for the tray of mouth-watering foods that are on the table. This looks so yummy! I tried first the fries, and I don’t know if this is from mcdonalds or what. But this is fire! I also ate the whole burger, and all of the foods here. Wow that’s yummy! I wiped my mouth after I ate. Only 15 minutes have passed since I have been left alone in this office. I looked around again. What should I do? This is boring. Well, not until my eyes landed on the books. SO MANY BOOKS! I want to read! I stood up the sofa and half run to the books. Damn all my fav’s are here! This is heaven! I got a book entitled ‘The stars of us’. Just as I was about to read the first page of the book, my phone vibrated from my pocket. Ohhh, it’s Elocin. I know what she wants, probably can wait to hear what I was gonna say so she would like to talk about it on the phone. Gosh! “Hello” I answered. “Hi! I just got home! I don’t have anything important to do

Elexier’s POV: “I want you to fix this Elexier. I don’t want any trouble here. Make sure it’s all alright in a week. If not, I bet you already know what will happen to you.” his voice is serious although it's not loud, you can hear the power and emphasis. *Phone beeps* He ended the call as soon as he spit those words. I furiously put my phone back to my pocket and took a deep breath. I placed my hand on my forehead trying to calm down and think properly. I am driving to my company and just stopped to answer the call. Living in this world coming from this kind of family is exhausting. But I can't do anything. This is the life I have. I have to life the rest of my life with them. Or do I? I took a deep breath again and the engine of my car roared to life when I finally started it again. There is a problem in the plane where our drugs are kept. Not ours, actually. His, my Dad. I don’t want to do this. I didn’t want to. I have never want to. I didn’t imag

They zae one of the biggest in the country. Or maybe even in the whole Asia. I walked towards the door. As I was about to eneter, the jtwo tall guards stopped me. "Excuse me Ma'am, do you have a pass?" One of them said that made me stop. I didn't know that they need a pass here to get in? I scartched my neck nervously. As I couldn't show them anything, I just pretended that I am finding something in my bag. "Good morning Sir," the two guards said at the same time to someone who I think is behind me. I looked back because maybe I'm blocking his way. When I looked back, I saw the familiar face of that one guy who saved me from the taxi driver. My eyes widened in shock. They called him sir so that means he really works here! "What's happening here?" he then sp

I looked around and found relief when I saw that this place isn’t like those place where I am finding myself to be in for the last, days? I don’t know. What happened?

I cursed so loud inside my car thinking what they might do to Amira. I swear, they will pay if they tried to give even just a small bruise at Amira! My breathing is hitching when my phone suddenly rang. I looked at it and saw Amira’s number calling. I stepped on the break very quickly and answered the call.“Hello Amira?! Where are you?! Are you okay?! Where are you?!” I immediately asked continuously when I answered the call. I didn’t heard Amira’s voice, instead I heard a man’s evil laugh on the other line.‘Elexier, Elexier, Elexier. Oh Elexier my dear, why are you so worried about this girl huh?” The man spoke and then laughed again. Upon hearing that famili

Elexier’s POVAfter that talk with Amira, she decided that she should get their things first in their boarding house so that they could stay here. I didn’t agree with her, because I’m afraid that something might happen when she leave here. We can’t still tell how our enimies are thinking. They might be planning for their next move now. I told her that I can just buy them new clothes because I really can,I really would. But she insisted. She said that that is not needed.“Amira, it will be better that way. You are much safer that way. I’ll just buy things for you. For the both of you. We don’t know if you’re safe out there.Mr. Lozano’s men could be everywhere.” I said to her as they walks to the door, already leaving. I followed them.“That’s a no need Elexier.

I didn’t dare to open any window to check if those men are still here.My phone’s alarm beep and it woke me up. I didn’t know if that was what you call sleep. It felt like just a second.

I got up the bed and walked up to my door and slowly opened it. When I got out my room, I saw the lights on the kitchen are open. I walked to there and saw Elocin making breakfast.“Oh, you’re already awake,” She greeted at me when I entered the

Elexier’s POV I drove Amira home to her house and my mom and I drove directly to my condo. My mom immediately got in her room and I guess, she already dozed of. I went to my room and took a shower. This day is so tiring. But it’s so fun. I can’t help but to smile while on the shower. Oh man, I guess this is bad. I’m doomed. Amira already found her way on how to get in my system and drive me crazy. And I am literally in here in the shower, taking a bath, thinking of her. But I just can’t help it. I got out the shower and blow dried my hair. I then let my self fall in my bed. I’m just staring at the ceiling, waiting my eyes to close and sleep. But even if I already close my eyes, Amira’s image is there. I chuckled at my self. I’m crazy. But my smile faded away when I realized what will happen tomorrow. We’ll be visiting my father, in the jail. Mom have requested this to me. And she have already waited for so long to
